"But why are Xu Youyou and her group trying to get our film crew to promote their work?"

Xiao He asked the question that puzzled him the most.

He had some prior knowledge of "The Light Remains as Before".

This work is adapted from a well-known romance novel IP, which has a certain fan base. Xu Youyou's fame and status are also there, comparable to Yiman'er. Although Ran Yunrui is not as good as Su Shengxi, he is still a relatively high-profile celebrity. No matter what, the idol drama co-starring these two is bound to make a splash, and there should be no concern about viewership.

Why would they try to piggyback on "Shining Stars"? That's absurd!

Liu Rulan then remembered something: "Oh right, you probably don't know about this—"

She picked up the tablet, scrolled through it, and then placed it in front of Xiao He: "You were busy filming during that time, so you probably didn't see this news."

Xiao He picked it up and took a look with some curiosity.

[Xu Youyou's secret rendezvous with a new lover? Is he a sugar daddy or a lover?]

"hiss--"

Xiao He became more serious and picked up the tablet to examine it carefully.

The accompanying photos show: Xu Youyou talking while holding a man's arm; the man getting close to Xu Youyou and tidying up stray hairs by her ear; the man leading Xu Youyou into a black Bentley; and the vehicle driving away from the scene.

Below that is a complete set of animated GIFs, which is the whole video of Xu Youyou walking out of the hotel with the man, and then the two of them getting into the car together.

Xiao He was genuinely surprised this time: "She broke up with Su Shengxi?"

To be honest, since their relationship was exposed, Xiao He has not paid any attention to whether the two of them are together or broken up. He also can't possibly be secretly looking at other people's chat history every day, so he doesn't know what the current situation of the two of them is.

However, judging from this almost undeniable revelation, Xiao He guesses that the two have most likely already broken up.

That's quite normal, though. Su Shengxi is clearly not the type to take responsibility, so their relationship was doomed from the moment it was exposed.

Xiao He just felt that this revelation was a bit strange.

Especially the person walking with Xu Youyou... None of these photos and videos captured this person's face clearly, so we have no way of knowing his identity, but that car looks somewhat familiar...

Xiao He kept zooming in on the man's photo, when suddenly his gaze fell on the ring that flashed briefly on the man's finger—Xiao He remembered.

That dates back to the last day of last year, which was the New Year's Eve when he rescued people from the fire.

Xiao He had seen Xu Youyou before; she was with two bodyguards and got into a Bentley.

This is the car mentioned in the leak.

But wasn't it only recently that he revealed their relationship?

Were these two already in contact back then?

"Being exposed in two relationships in a row has had a huge impact on her." Liu Rulan, unaware of Xiao He's shock, continued to explain, "As you know, Xu Youyou has always maintained a pure and innocent image over the years, marketing herself as a campus goddess and a pure first love. It's normal that many people can't accept this now that this has happened."

"Especially the man she's dating now, who is said to be a rich second-generation developer from Hong Kong, a super-rich tycoon. He has dated people both inside and outside the industry before, and is known as a rich and womanizing playboy. He hasn't had any contact with Xu Youyou on the surface, so no one expected that Xu Youyou would be with someone like that."

Under such circumstances, it's hard for the public not to speculate about this matter.
